G4S – PREBOARD SCREENING PERSONNEL LOCAL LODGE 16 – VANCOUVER

POTENTIAL SICK OUT

Dear Brothers and Sisters:

We were advised by counsel for G4S Secure Solutions on Thursday, June 20, 2013, that employees are organizing and/or intend to participate in a “mass sick out” this Sunday, June 23, 2013, which will continue sporadically thereafter in protest of the reduction of work hours.

The IAMAW is not aware of any organized “mass sick out”.out-sick

Please be advised that a “mass sick out” would be considered illegal job action under the Canada Labour Code.

Therefore, we are advising employees not to participate in this alleged activity and wish to encourage all employees to report to work as scheduled.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this regard.

In Solidarity,

Tania Canniff, General Chairperson

Transportation District 140, IAMAW
